The Return of QM and a Cigar

Tomo's back to blogging after a little hiatus (he provides at least one very good reason for his absence) and inaugurates a new "give 'em what they want" series which attempts to answer Googlers' questions. I'd do that, but then I'd have to write posts about wiccans (spelling, people!) and whether Steven Sabados and Nik Manojlovich are gay.

Agenda Bender has it exactly right on the FCC's over-reaction (to put it mildly) to Janet and Justin's Super Bowl half-time antics. He has suitably harsh words for commission chairman Michael Powell and a great suggestion in response to Mickey Kaus's jumping on the censorship bandwagon:

Let's just appoint angry, young Muslims to the FCC, Mickey. As long as you think the feds should be in the position to fire broadcast executives and shut down TV stations as punishment for prime time bodice rippage and nip slippage, and that the occasional bare right tit will light a fuse under the umah's younger set, how better to avoid the conflagration than by making the FCC an American outpost of international Mullah standards and practices.
